Your iPhone’s Settings option contains features and functionalities that you can set or adjust in order to control your device’s behavior. To make Settings easier to navigate, functions are grouped into options. Each option contains sub-options that are related to each other. Though the phone’s options and settings are optimally organized, one can easily get lost with the vast amount of preferences in Settings. Luckily, there is a way to get to a setting quickly on your iPhone or iPad without going through each option and sub-option. The steps outlined in this tutorial work for iPhone, iPad, and the iPod running on iOS 9.
Preview is Mac’s default app for viewing files such as PDFs, JPEGs, PNGs, and most other image files.

Google Maps is a powerful tool that is used billions of times a day around the world. Many of us would be literally lost without it. You simply type in where you want to go, and Google Maps gives you multiple options on how to get there using a car, walking, or taking public transportation.

A lesser known feature is that Google Maps will allow you to tweak a route. I use this feature to see how far I ran on my morning jogs around the neighborhood. I definitely do not take the most direct route as recommended by Google Maps, but I can drag the route to match where I ran and get the measured distance. This feature is also handy if you want to plan a detour or lunch break into your road trip plans. Here’s how to customize a route in Google Maps.
Note that this set of instructions is relevant to the web version of Google Maps, not the mobile app version.

In a previous tutorial, I explained how to add text boxes to PDFs using Preview, Mac’s default app for viewing PDFs and other files. Adding notes with Preview is very similar to adding text boxes.

This is useful if you want to annotate a PDF heavily without creating a cluttered document. You have the option to print your PDF with the notes displayed in the margin.
